<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">_On your draft paper_</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I've only had a quick read through at
this stage. My initial reation is that this is an excellent start. You
have put together some very valuable information.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Perhaps we could put this into a wiki
to allow other members of the community to help develop it further.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Some initial thoughts:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- We should be careful that this work
is seen as OSGeo-AustNZ providing advice and assistance to ANZLIC, and</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> not trying to take over the project.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> This is ANZLIC's project to manage,
unless they deem it appropriate to hand it over to the *GeoNetwork*</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> community to run with at some
point in the future.</font>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">- For a quick win, I suggest that we
split out the GeoNetwork specific section and concentrate on it first.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> It will probably provide a framework
to use with other OS spatial projects as well.</font>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">_On SDIs_</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I don't think that the SDI section should
be in the document. I find that it is divisive and will detract from the
message that we are trying to deliver. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Paul has his beliefs and is entitled
to them. I personally don't think that things are as gloomy as described.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Please see my follow up post for more
information.</font>
